Chapter 579 Fifth Tier [Undying Nether Dragon Technique] - The Path of Slaughter!
"Island Master Tianmeng, come out!"
The Venerable One's aura swept across the world, and the island lord, who was sitting on the island enjoying wine and listening, trembled as if he saw a towering giant staring intently at him.
This is the terrifying illusion caused by the pressure of the primordial spirit.
It has a very strong deterrent effect on cultivators of lower realms, making it difficult for them to have the will to resist.
The island lord flew out, trembling.
Upon seeing Wang Yu's true form, he immediately lowered his head and said in a panic, "Senior, I am just an island lord from a remote area. I don't know... where I have offended you."
"You haven't offended me."
Wang Yu reached out his hand.
"Hand over three bushels of millet wine."
Upon hearing this, the Lord of Tianmeng Island revealed a bitter smile. Treasures are tempting, and even the most high and mighty Venerables covet the opportunity of the Yellow Millet Dream.
"I understand."
There was no resistance, no struggle. Given the absolute difference in strength, as long as it didn't cost him his life, he could simply hand over some rare treasures.
This is the essence of the cultivation world—survival of the fittest!
…………
…………
Three days later.
A deserted island in the chaotic East China Sea.
After quickly creating a cave dwelling, Wang Yu began another period of seclusion. His actions during this time were somewhat brutal, but the results were gratifying.
He held the Bodhi seed in his palm, and the Seven Hearts Treasure Wheel Tree in his heart lake began to radiate holy light, helping his mind to become more stable. He then took out a bushel of millet wine.
Drink it all in one gulp!
As the alcohol took effect, Wang Yu's consciousness became increasingly clear, yet he struggled to control his wandering thoughts, as if... a conscious descent into depravity.
A pipe dream.
Starting from this moment, Wang Yu's comprehension soared after his seclusion ended. He completed all his seclusion goals, successfully comprehended four realms of artistic conception, and even fused them together.
The unprecedented surge in the strength of his primordial spirit accelerated his cultivation, allowing him to break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm in just twenty years.
It went incredibly smoothly, and at the same time, he went alone to explore the Void Dao Treasury, from which he obtained a large number of supernatural and secret techniques of the Dao of Space.
However.
Since it was a dream, he could not see the true form of things he had never possessed, and therefore could not obtain these inheritances through dreams.
After his journey through the Daoist canon, Wang Yu returned to Golden Toad City.
With the support of the two major chambers of commerce, he quickly accumulated demonic energy and reached the peak of the Nascent Soul stage in ten years.
In thirty years, they accomplished what others had accumulated over a thousand years.
With a beautiful confidante by his side, he was living a carefree life until one day, a divine being descended from the heavens, intending to seal away demons and destroy the world. Wang Yu decisively stood up and fought against him.
But he was no match for them and was critically injured and dying.
He suddenly comprehended a profound and mysterious technique of the void, and forcibly led his female relatives and friends to break through the boundary. In the cosmic sea, he comprehended the mysteries of space and broke through the Void Refinement stage on the spot.
Without hesitation, they charged back.
And so... the second defeat came. This time, relying on the secret technique of breaking through boundaries, he escaped again, finding a small realm near the Ice Prison Realm as a foothold, shaking off all his burdens.
After three hundred years of arduous cultivation, his cultivation level rose to the peak of the Void Refinement stage.
However.
What awaited him was not victory, but a third defeat. This time, he was not so lucky and ultimately died at the hands of a powerful Dao-merging expert.
A pipe dream is shattered!
Inside the temporary cave, Wang Yu appeared dazed.
Upon regaining consciousness, he looked down at his hands, feeling as if he had truly possessed that powerful strength. The sensation from the dream made him feel as if he had returned to a certain point in the past.
Although it's a fantasy, it's even more convincing than the real world.
"I see."
She sighed softly.
Most of the experiences in his dreams were things he wanted to do but hadn't had the chance to do yet, and everything went smoothly and successfully, just like after this retreat ended.
He would then use the Void Stele given to him by Venerable Taixu.
Obtaining the inheritance from the Void Dao Treasury should provide a way to counter the methods of the Prison King Spirit Official, which is exactly what he did in the dream.
However, there are some of his plans that he has not revealed.
It looks a bit rough.
It was this "roughness" that allowed him, who was usually meticulous, to step out of his real feelings. Although the person in his dream looked very similar to the real person, it was definitely not him!
Each person can only drink Huangliang wine once; drinking more is useless.
Wang Yu began to appreciate the benefits of this experience.
Having lived for hundreds of years, the gains are considerable. The most direct feedback is that the time required to break the limit of Dharma intent in the placement bar has been reduced from eighty years to sixty years.
The improvement is significant.
After sitting quietly for three days, having fully grasped all the gains and adapted to the situation, Wang Yu took out the Life and Death Mayfly Gu and held it under his tongue.
It has the magical effect of stimulating a mayfly's dream.
This time, he became an insect egg on the water's surface, completely oblivious to his own consciousness, unaware of anything, before hatching, molting, spreading his wings, and mating.
It eventually died on the water, experiencing a life that was born in the morning and died at dusk.
At the last moment.
Only then will the self slowly recover, becoming so immersed in enlightenment that it cannot extricate itself. Although the effects of the Mayfly Gu can be reused, it also causes some damage to the primordial spirit.
It cannot be used continuously, and the person cannot regain consciousness after losing it.
It can easily cause serious damage to the primordial spirit, so it needs to be used with caution.
After this.
The time limit for breaking through the Dharma limit was reduced from sixty years to forty-five years. This time, he rested for a full half month before he could completely take control of himself.
Then, the secret technique of boundless mortal world!
This method of improvement is gentler, so the effect of each improvement is not obvious, but it is superior in that it is long-lasting and stable. Practicing it once every few years can reduce the waiting time by five years.
The insights gained from these methods of enlightenment will enhance his comprehension, thereby making him stronger and more efficient in the game.
This indirectly achieves the goal of reducing the derivation time.
He went into seclusion for less than half a month.
The harvest is already quite good; the next step is the most crucial one: the combined application of tea leaves and bodhi seeds.
then.
He had verified this when he used the Heavenly Enlightenment Platform: the temporarily added state of enlightenment could not be synchronized to the placement bar, so it was the real body that was making the effort.
When the efficiency of the main body surpasses the effect of the placement bar.
It can also cover the past and reduce the deduction time; the effects on both sides are mutual.
The first tea leaf was refined by Wang Yu using his divine sense.
It transformed into a drop of emerald green liquid and landed between his brows, officially beginning a three-year enlightenment journey. The aura emanating from the Bodhi seed in his hand also enhanced his comprehension.
After three years of this process, a complete transformation will occur.
As time passed, 1,100 days went by.
…………
It was May of the 223rd year of his ancestor's life.
Wang Yu, who was in seclusion, suddenly opened his eyes. His wisdom and spiritual light seemed to emanate from almost three feet away, and there seemed to be an invisible stream of information flowing through his eyes.
[Placement Slot 8: Undying Nether Dragon Technique (Tier 5/Body Refinement)]
"Undying Nether Dragon Technique (100/100): Nine times a day, can be advanced in fifty years."
During his seclusion, Wang Yu mainly focused on deriving this cultivation technique. He first successfully advanced to the fifth level of the Corpse Demon Secret Technique in just half a month, and after obtaining its true meaning, he then integrated it with the Body Refining Inheritance.
Three years have passed.
Finally, the revamped Undying Nether Dragon Technique was born.
Most importantly, this method gained the approval of the placement system, which considered it to be no longer the same technique as the Yinming Demon Dragon Technique, thus granting it another opportunity to be derived and upgraded.
It is indeed completely different from the previous methods.
This technique has forty-five levels. With the previous foundation in place, and the method itself being his own creation, it entered the state of perfection the moment it was born.
His skills were at their peak, and he had mastered the true meaning of the techniques.
The perfect effect of this method is called—[Undying Nether Dragon]!
Based on the demonic dragon that was previously formed from blood and qi.
It can condense nine Nether Dragons to protect the body, almost transforming into a physical supernatural power. Like a Dharma body, it has the effect of being immortal and indestructible, with its blood and qi never drying up and the Nether Dragons never dying!
It possesses formidable defense and unparalleled brute strength.
It fully inherited the basic values of Wang Yu's physical body. When the method is activated, it can be blessed by nine dragons, integrating offense and defense, and can even be combined with supernatural powers and secret techniques.
This allowed his body-refining cultivation to be fully utilized!
With the cultivation technique complete, there were no more shortcomings on the path of body refinement. Wang Yu did not rush to use the second Enlightenment Tea Leaf. Instead, he took out the corpse of the Azure Dragon Demon Lord and used its blood and flesh essence for body refinement.
It can both replenish the injuries sustained in the Battle of Zangtiantai.
He was also able to begin to truly break through the Body Refinement Realm. Another seven years passed, and each year he would use the Boundless Mortal World Secret Technique and the Ephemeral Gu to further enhance his comprehension.
at the same time.
The accumulation of Vajra Indestructible Divine Skill was entirely transformed into the cultivation of Undying Nether Dragon Skill, enabling him to break through his body refinement realm time and time again.
In addition, there are highly nourishing body-refining resources such as the Azure Dragon Demon Corpse, supplemented by auxiliary cultivation tools such as the Sea-Suppressing Pearl.
In seven years, Wang Yu's body refinement cultivation level skyrocketed to the mid-stage of the fifth rank, which is equivalent to the progress of the fifth level of the Nascent Soul stage, a tremendous improvement!
The strength of the field controlled by force increases ninefold.
Enough to cover an entire continent, which means that Wang Yu can use brute force to uproot an entire continent, or he can concentrate his power into a single point and destroy everything!
This overwhelming feeling, coupled with the cultivation of the orthodox path, should allow me to easily defeat myself ten years ago. My true combat power after unleashing my full strength should be comparable to the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
An immortal body has been initially forged.
The immortal spiritual light, originally confined to the bones, gradually seeped into the flesh and tendons, forming a layer of "black membrane" with the characteristics of the Undying Nether Dragon Technique.
In the path of body refinement, due to different lineages, the methods of cultivation also differ, resulting in each body refiner having a unique and personalized immortal body.
This black membrane is the prototype of the [Nether Dragon Immortal Body] that Wang Yu has cultivated. When he achieves great success in his cultivation, the black membrane will form runes and be deeply imprinted in his cells.
His path as a fifth-level body refiner was finally complete.
As for what to do next... we'll only know when the cultivation technique advances and evolves.
Ten years later, Wang Yu spared some time to contact Jin Miaoshan, both to learn about the outside world and to inquire about the Void Dao Treasury.
This Taoist temple has always been mysterious, with no record of it in ancient history. It is very likely a legacy from outside the realm, and it only entered the Ice Prison Realm in this era.
Wang Yu suspected that it drifted from the cosmic sea.
Its location is not in normal space, but in the middle layer between the chaotic layer and the real space, in that void where there is no concept of up, down, or four directions...
The corresponding spatial coordinates in the real world are near the Sword Sect's mountain gate, which is why it was controlled by the Taihu Sect. Wang Yu's Heavenly Lock and Guixu Hidden Heaven Curse both came from the Void Dao Treasury.
Considering the abilities of the Prison King and the Spirit Official.
The transmission of the Daoist canon must be completed, but... not now.
Wang Yu continued his seclusion to comprehend the essence of the art.
The supply of Enlightenment Tea has never stopped, with nine leaves remaining. Theoretically, this should be enough to support him in seclusion for twenty-seven years. This is only the lower limit, since he won't always be in a state of enlightenment.
There are other supernatural powers and techniques that need to be cultivated.
Two more years have passed.
As demonic energy continued to accumulate, Wang Yu's cultivation level also continued to improve. The four placement slots were generating power at a considerable speed, and his mastery of magical intent was becoming increasingly profound.
Twelve years.
He has completed half of his cultivation process at the fourth level of the Nascent Soul stage.
That day.
A fine layer of blood vessels spread out from where Wang Yu was sitting cross-legged, quickly covering the entire deserted island. The scarlet blood vessels writhed like living things.
A chilling, bone-chilling killing intent surged from Wang Yu's body.
It vaguely transformed into the phantom of a blood-red sword.
Killing intent, Asura's intent!
The combination of the two gave birth to a power of intent called the Path of Slaughter. Before he could further comprehend its true meaning, Wang Yu's primordial spirit became restless.
The golden, godlike primordial spirit was stained with blood.
A black and red sword appeared behind the primordial spirit. Its shape was somewhat similar to Jin Miaoshan's top-grade spiritual treasure, the Asura Divine Sword, but it was formed from the artistic conception that Wang Yu had comprehended.
The artistic conception is called the "Path of Slaughter"!
The sword that is formed is the manifestation of the power of the killing path: it can cleave the heavens, cleave the earth, destroy souls, slay demons, kill ghosts and gods, and even kill immortals!
When one cultivates to the highest level, nothing is beyond one's ability to kill.
Awakening from his enlightenment, Wang Yu's eyes revealed a visible joy.
"You've grasped the essence of the Asura's Dharma, haven't you? You've already grasped the rudiments of the Dao. Not bad, not bad!"
The greatest strength of the Killing Path lies in its ability to counter immortality techniques. It helped Wang Yu slay the Nascent Soul Dharma Form, breaking the opponent's immortality.
The significance of this effect is truly extraordinary.
A groundbreaking advancement!
The emergence of the Killing Path means that those Nascent Soul cultivators whose strength is inferior to his will be like clay chickens and earthenware dogs, whose Dharma forms can be quickly broken by him, thus achieving the ultimate speed kill.
To deal with the strong, or even any kind of immortality technique.
They are all effective; they are practically made to eliminate any threat at all. Escaping from their clutches would become extremely difficult.
"The essence of the path of killing..."
Wang Yu muttered to himself, quickly becoming engrossed in the conversation.
The primordial spirit then undergoes a transformation, requiring a period of dormancy to complete a metamorphosis, which takes at least several months to a year.
The appearance of this realm means that he has no more bottlenecks in breaking through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm. As long as he completes the accumulation of demonic energy and smoothly overcomes the tribulation of divine transformation, he will be able to break through to the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm.
There is absolutely no difficulty involved.
At the same time, one can begin the next stage of cultivation, continue to comprehend and strengthen the realm of intent, and transform it into runes to integrate into the Dharma form. This is the threshold for breaking through the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
But Wang Yu's ambitions were even greater.
The Asura Dharma Intent has undergone a transformation, but there are still three more Dharma Intents—Yellow Spring, Aurora, and Guanghan—waiting to be broken through. Once these four realms are born, it will take a great deal of effort to integrate them before Wang Yu can reach the state of great accomplishment as he understands it.
As for what kind of artistic conception will ultimately emerge.
He has no direction or judgment yet, so he can only take it one step at a time. If he fails... well, so be it. In any case, he will not give up on the path to becoming stronger.
